Asc Engineered Solutions 830062402 Black Steel Nipple

Product Description

The ASC Engineered Solutions 830062402 is a black steel pipe nipple sized at 6 inches in diameter by 8 inches in length. Pipe nipples are short sections of threaded pipe used to connect fittings, valves, and other components in piping systems. This nipple is constructed from black steel, making it well suited for gas distribution, fire suppression, and industrial fluid-transfer applications. Licensed plumbers, pipefitters, and mechanical contractors install these components during new construction and retrofit projects where a code-compliant, threaded connection between piping sections is required. At 11.25 pounds, this is a substantial-grade fitting intended for demanding service environments.

Black steel pipe nipples in this size range are commonly used in commercial and industrial piping systems, including natural gas supply lines, compressed air systems, and hydronic heating distribution. The 6-inch nominal diameter makes this fitting appropriate for main-line or large-branch piping runs rather than smaller residential stub-outs. This particular fitting is imported and classified as non-domestic in origin.

Key Features

• Black steel construction suitable for gas, steam, and industrial fluid service
• 6-inch nominal diameter by 8-inch length for main-line and large-branch applications
• Threaded ends for standard mechanical connections to fittings and valves
• 11.25-pound unit weight reflecting heavy-wall, industrial-grade construction
• Non-domestic import fitting for general commercial and industrial piping use

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or standard addition for 6-inch nominal black steel threaded piping systems in commercial, industrial, and mechanical applications.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter in accordance with applicable local codes, the International Plumbing Code (IPC), and International Fuel Gas Code (IFGC) where gas service is involved. Shut off all gas or fluid supply and relieve system pressure before removing or installing any threaded fitting. Apply an approved thread sealant or PTFE tape rated for the intended service medium to all threaded connections. Never use black steel fittings in potable water supply systems.
